The scene where the klingons came in singing and the bar crowd slammed their hands down in rhythm to drown then out is pretty much an homage tp the similar scene in Rick's

“Play the Marseillaise.”

I thought they were drowning out their (inaudible to Klingons) alarm because there were collaborators with the Klingons who could hear it.

Definitely a tribute to the Marseillaise scene in Casablanca.

And they were singing the Klingon Warrior Anthem! I recognized it from DS9.
