Publisher Activision demoed the next main installment in the Guitar Hero series at The Wall Street Journal’s All Things Digital D6 conference in California this week, with company CEO Bobby Kotick in attendance to introduce the title and professional skateboarder Tony Hawk on stage to play guitar.

Suffice to say, the whole event went sour and descended into a spiral of awkwardness before the oft-maligned Paula Abdul even came on stage. Mainly because the WSJ spokesperson mixed up Guitar Hero: World Tour with another game, a game that apparently doesn’t exist in Kotick’s world. We kid you not. See for yourself in the clip.
