Since you are only displaying past_shows in your list, I would simply  
query for those in your view. Then you can test to see if the  
object_list is empty and display the appropriate message.

{% if object_list %}
     {% for show in object_list %}
     ...
     {% endfor %}
{% else %}
     <h4>No past show information available</h4>
{% endif %}
