Green Machine will also be liable for all costs associated with a canceled concert, the Star-Telegram reported.

The city’s previous agreement charged Green Machine $12,500 per show and $800 a month to rent the box office, which generated about $63,000 for the city.

The current agreement could generate up to $100,000 for the city coffers, the paper said.
