OK, this is a youtube vid from my cover band in Atl. This was a new "thing" we are trying with band member intros...solo thing 
Anyway, although I have been playing since men used buckskin condoms  I don't slap...I like grooving...anyway, I CAN slap a bit, I call it slop slap, I'm NOT doing it the correct way and get a bruised knuckle from it...Solo is in E and I am playing with a wah for added "funk" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpjszpBzgFY

Maybe have the drummer not play so loud during your solo....Apparently you can get them to stop playing if you put sheet music in front of them....Dunno

We are going to patch into the board next gig there.

That's what counts most of all. Even if I do my own slop slap, I keep it within bounds to where I stay solid with the drums at all times. |

next time when it's the drummers turn to solo, you play your solo at the same time but LOUDER !!!!!! maybe he will get the point.
I am not a big fan of solos myself... I limit my "solos" to a 2-3 second familiar tune like.. 'when you wish upon a star', 'somewhere over the rainbow', and the ever popular 'twinke twinkle little star'... which always gets a chuckle from the ladies..
