Damn, that sucks. But you don't really have anything to lose by going, except a bit of time. If anything, you can use it as practice.

I screwed up massively in my last job interview. My mind went blank after one of the questions and I just sat there in silence not knowing what to say for 20+ seconds. It was so awkward and I thought it was over. But I still got the job and I am working there to this day.

Just remember that if you make it to the stage where you get offered an interview, they already think you're really good. When most jobs have over 100 applicants, you are probably in the Top 5% at that point.
