Wasn’t point you only need to come once?
It’s easier to do things in a group. You replace some limited willpower with peer pressure.
I had thoughts. Many were meta. Is that common?
In my experience, yes. At least at the beginning (which is where I am). The meta thoughts are the most distracting ones.
Thinking about meditation while meditating is totally common. It tends to go away over time as you get used to doing it, but there is something to be said for maintaining awareness of what you are doing while doing it.
