Much larger. And some of those in the first 2-3 rows of shows you have attended may be the same .. and some of us will still be there. Any others will imo be gratefully taken up by some of the other 10,000.

Also whenever I go to Meet and Greets it's always the same ones there in the UK and many of who are regular posters here or have at least visited here.

Really? That's not my experience. Yes, there will be some faces who attend, but many (in fact I'd say more) quite unfamiliar ones, and not regular posters here.

.... as they have collectively given Meat a nice little cash bonus at each show just to have the honour of meeting him.

A rather large (and imo a rather snarky) assumption, unless you are privy to the figures and budgets, which to be honest I doubt. I don't think you have any better idea than any of us as to how much the promoter takes, how much VIP Nation (or other organising body) takes, how much may be used as part of the over all budget, and how much, if anything, Meat receives specifically from the packages.
