From what I vaguely remember about the perv in California that was taping locker rooms, there was no law against the video taping, but the AUDIO was subject to wiretap laws.

This was years ago, though. And IANAL.

Back in the day when I was working as a 4-H Advisor, we had an
incident at the Fair where someone was videotaping a horse show, and
someone else was pissed that their kid was now on this guy's
videotape. We talked to the sheriff and to university counsel. The
consensus was that it was a public event and anyone had the right to
videotape it.

I would guess that the same holds true for your friend - he was on
public property at the time. I think it's akin to the fact that news
organizations don't need releases from everyone in the background of
their "on the street" shots....

The ethics of the situation is a whole different matter, though.
